Getting Compensation After a Truck Accident Can Be Difficult Without a Lawyer

The consequences of truck accidents are often devastating for victims and their families. In addition to causing disabling injuries, they often leave victims in need of extensive and pricey medical treatments. Many victims require long-term care, including physical rehabilitation, during their paths to recovery.

Like auto accident victims, truck accident victims can file claims for compensation against any and all parties whose negligence contributed to their injuries. That includes truck drivers, truck companies, and truck owners associated with the truck involved in their accidents. But because the amount of compensation involved in truck accidents can be significant, victims often find it difficult to get fair settlements—if the insurance company agrees to pay anything in the first place.

At Ponce Law, our Nashville truck accident attorneys know how the trucking industry works, and we’re familiar with the tactics insurance companies use to reduce or deny payments to victims. Many insurers stand to lose big money when truck accident victims have valid claims against their policyholders, and that can result in tactics that aren’t always seen in other types of compensation claims.

Having a law firm on your side is a great defense against the hurdles and traps the insurance company will put up while you attempt to get damages for your medical bills and lost wages. We have many years of experience getting successful verdicts for victims like you, and we know what it takes to win. Call us today for a free consultation.
